After Mike Salvador’s passing, Dominica Versaggi Salvador, his wife, took control of her husband’s shrimping empire at 36 years old. Dominica kept the momentum of her husband’s business going with the help of her brother, Salvatore Versaggi.
When her oldest son Felix reached 16 years old, Dominica brought him into the business. The tight-knit family bonds ensured a smooth transition in leadership and the continued success of Mike Salvador’s dream to develop a new market for shrimp.
